Joy Christmas Shaker Card

My Christmas cards are coming along and I finally ventured into making a shaker card!!! I think it turned out ok - maybe a little too much shaker elements but it still works.  My card today is being submitted to WPlus9's Challenge: Throwback Thursdays #9.

I adore this stamp set! Here's the card I made featuring the santa and tree images:

Here's a detailed pic of the shaker:

The shaker has sequins, some mica flakes and these tiny clear beads I've had.  I stamped the images with Versamark ink to give a little definition of the image. For the card base I used SnowTex with a falling snow stencil. I like the chunky rough texture this gives and opacity versus using an embossing paste.

Thanks for visiting!
